Chapter 289: Black Market
"Big sister, will it take me a while before I see my mother......
The little girl looked at Alyssa's face carefully, and when she saw that she looked at her and had nothing to say, she suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.
The big sister had previously said that if everything went well, then the family would be reunited soon.
Looking at this appearance now, it may be difficult for me to see my mother.
She whispered to the big sister who had been cold from the beginning.
After the silence, the little girl's eyes began to fill with tears, but she quickly turned around and wiped them clean so that she did not show her weakness.
This big sister was actually very good, rescued me and my mother, and gave us food and hot water......
Alyssa's eyes looked at the little girl who had turned around, even if she didn't hear the crying.
But the sad emotions in her have betrayed her.
If she is a normal person, Alyssa should comfort the little girl in the face of this situation.
But Alyssa just glanced at her and didn't bother with her.
Just feed her something to eat when she's hungry.
In Elisa's eyes, taking care of a child is like bringing a pet.
As for more things......
It obviously has nothing to do with me.
If she really pitied the little girl, she wouldn't have taken her mother away from her.
In the past, when the witch turned into "Alyssa", she narrated again and again.
Some of these ideas did affect Alyssa.
At this moment, the little girl and her mother were valuable objects in Alyssa's eyes.
In other words, except for his family and him, everything can be divided into valuable and worthless.
It is precisely because the mother and daughter appear in the witch's residence that they have hidden value, so Alyssa will save them.
Passing by the little girl, she walked to the bookshelf and took out an ancient book from the crowd.
It was a book about the circle.
Alyssa intends to gain a way to change the defensive circle of this space and use it for herself.
If this were to be known to the professor warlocks who had been studying the circle for many years, it would probably be regarded as a stupid joke.
Do you really think that just by reading a few books, you can start with confidence?
Those complex knowledge, countless calculations.
You can't learn anything by reading a few books.
But Alyssa naturally has her thoughts.
The memories from the witch are her greatest confidence.
Although some of them are fragmented memories, there are still some things that can be absorbed.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Alyssa to master all kinds of spells in just a few days.
This formation is also naturally effective.
In addition, when she was flipping through the memories of the Extreme Demon Girl, she also found something interesting.
Alyssa's eyes narrowed slightly, and she carefully studied the book in her hand.
But that requires strength to rely on.
Her current strength is not clear to Alyssa at which level.
Because their strength does not come through normal channels.
So she couldn't make a reference.
But after devouring the witch, he devoured it along with some of her laws.
If the books were to go, she would already be a Morning Star Warlock.
But I don't feel that way.
Alyssa fell into deep thought, but then dismissed her thoughts.
She looked up at the massive machine that was constantly in motion.
Countless storage containers stand here, forming heavy pillars.
There are so many emotions gathered here that are terrifying.
After all, it comes from the slums, a place of endless desire and despair
。
If you use all the emotions here to shape a person, I am afraid that you will create a strong man who does not know his strength.
But now, it's all Alyssa's.
With the witch's almost unrealistic plan......
……
There seem to be a lot of people today.
Through the crow's blood-red eyes, Ji Yan looked at a place where many figures were coming in and out.
That's the entrance to the black market.
It's not like Ji Yan hasn't been here before.
That's where he came from handing over items to that Kazuki.
However, at that time, the black market was deserted, and there were hardly many people hanging around.
Even though the emperor has a population of millions, it is still the same.
And now, just Ji Yan stayed for a while.
Dozens of people came in and out.
That's quite an amazing density.
After all, if there are tens of thousands of warlocks who just stay in the imperial capital, they don't know.
It was the center of an empire, prosperous and prosperous.
Ji Yan looked at it for a while, and he also had some understanding of this.
After all, I don't know who spread the news, but there will be a legendary mysterious item in the black market today - golden apples.
This naturally attracts many people to come here.
Just for this news, whether it's true or not, it's worth a trip.
So it's not just the sorcerers who wander the slums.
There were even some nobles' subordinates who dressed up in disguise and quietly blended into the crowd.
They also came for the golden apple.
Among these figures, Ji Yan could see some of them observing like himself.
I guess it's the people from the secret department.
Ji Yan wanted to raise his hand and pull the brim of his black cloak down, but his body didn't react.
He was slightly stunned, and then there was some embarrassment on the body of the bedroom.
Because of the figure that appeared at the door of the black market at this moment.
In fact, it is composed of shadows and crows.
Ji Yan sighed, he felt extremely inconvenienced like this.
But I don't have the kind of puppet that can replace me now.
Thinking of this, Ji Yan missed the puppet that he placed in the sky city very much.
It's a pity that its body is extremely unstable now, and it needs Sky City to suppress it.
Wait a minute...... Castle in the sky!
Ji Yan suddenly remembered something.
Castle in the Sky can suppress mystical forces!
Then he thought about the transmission of electric current.
If it can be constrained, then it means that the current is controllable.
His eyes lit up, and then he felt a little helpless.
The answer he had been looking for was actually beside him, and he didn't notice it.
Ji Yan was dumbfounded for a while.
His original plan for the current was to use the mysterious power to control it, use the magic circle instead of the processor, and draw the mysterious factor from the air as for the energy source.
This is also the common idea of most mystical circles.
But now there's another way to do it, and it's worth trying.
But this also leads to other problems.
For example, if the suppression is excessive, will the current disappear directly......
Perhaps he can abandon the inherent concepts of the previous life and directly replace the current with the mysterious factor.
Ji Yan shook his head, these are all things that will be considered later.
Now it's time to see what this Twilight Order has to do......
But then again, Ji Yan didn't expect that just the name of a golden apple would be so popular with warlocks.
He thought of the golden apple in his house again, and suddenly his heart was a little excited.
If you really get it here to buy,
What's that worth......
But then Ji Yan dispelled this idea.
It's not in a hurry to use it yourself, and you can sell it for ......
Ji Yan then gave the order to the shadow through the crow to go in.
Shadow:......
It took a long time before it moved towards the entrance of the black market.
Ji Yan couldn't help but hold his forehead for a while, is such a high delay really okay?
He couldn't help but start thinking about the convenient puppets again.
When this matter is over, you must urge Darren to search for the puppet maker.
Or find a spell that creates a doppelganger......
Just as Ji Yan was thinking, the shadow figure also joined the crowd.
In order to conceal it, Ji Yan covered his whole body tightly and tightly.
A lot of people are dressed almost like him.
The Black Market is accessible only to warlocks.
It has a formation that detects fluctuations in mystery factors.
As soon as the reaction of the mysterious factor is detected, it will be released.
Shadows don't have to worry about this, a shadow creature and a minion creature can easily blend in.
Behind them, two figures also dressed in black robes appeared.
"Your Highness, are you looking for someone? Do you need me to help you?"
One of the dark figures asked sideways, apparently leading the other.
"Huh?"
The other raised her voice slightly, and she noticed her words, and quickly changed her words.
"Ahem...... My lord, do you need my help?"
"No need."
The leader shook his head slightly.
These two people are the puppet body, Christine and her guard Curty who came to the black market.
She was just looking for someone in the crowd to see if there was anyone she was familiar with.
It's just that all the people here have hidden their identities, where will people recognize them.
If he had known about it, he would have come over.
I just don't know if it's the real body or if it's replaced by a puppet.
But at this time, he doesn't seem to have a puppet yet......
Thinking of this, Christine prayed in her heart that he had better not come.
It's actually good to stay at home, it's safe and risk-free.
Otherwise, I will go to his house one day and send a few dolls as a backup......
"Temple...... Adults?"
Curty saw that Her Royal Highness the princess was lost in thought for a while, so she reminded in a low voice.
Christine came back to her senses and looked up at the sky slightly.
"Let's go, we should be about to start."
"Yes, sir."
……
There are rows and rows of stalls in the black market.
But no one will pay attention to these.
All eyes are on the golden apple.
They gather here with a disbelief but a desire for it to exist.
Soon the news that the golden apples would be auctioned at six o'clock sharp.
This in turn caused the others to whisper to each other.
Some of them sneakily looked around, and after noticing that they hadn't noticed them, they slipped quietly to the back of the auction room.
They skilfully bypassed the guards patrolling the auction floor, as if they knew the route by heart.
The goal of this group is the same as the people waiting outside.
It's all golden apples that are about to be auctioned.
It's just a little different in the way you get it.
Hiding in the corners of the patrol lines, they looked at each other and nodded in acknowledgment of their duties.
They entered the interior of the auction hall one after another, then turned left and right.
It's just that what puzzled them was that when they went to the basement where their things were stored, one
There were no patrolling figures on the road.
One of them suddenly slowed down his pace.
His brow furrowed slightly, as his sensitive nose seemed to smell a strange smell in the air.
It was a smell he was familiar with, the smell of blood, which represented death.
My heart sank, it was obvious that someone had died here not long ago......
His footsteps paused, and then his toes gently crushed the ground.
There was a wet and smooth feeling, like a liquid that was about to solidify.
Gollum ......
His throat twitched slightly, holding his breath.
His eyes trembled slightly, and he kept looking around, and his steps stepped back cautiously.
He felt that he might have been a little reckless this time.
Hearing that the target was a golden apple, he got hot and agreed to the action.
Now all the anomalies mean that this could be a trap.
"Snap ......"
A slight noise rang out in the dead silent hallway.
The voice was so harsh.
His body stiffened as his back touched a hard object.
The sound was the sound of the body colliding with the hard object.
It was as if he had fallen into the sea, his body entangled in something invisible.
Obviously, there was a road here before.
Just as he was startled, the wall-like object behind him suddenly moved.
Turning his head in despair, it was a wall of human figures.
Then he didn't even have time to react, and his body was broken and dragged into it, disappearing.
A moment passed.
"Hoo ......"
"You've already come in, and you're still thinking about getting out of here......
"Ah, I feel like I've regained my strength a little bit."
The figure of a middle-aged man walked out, looking at the figure on the ground that had turned into a dry corpse, and there was still a faint look of horror on his face.
Soon the place was cleaned up and reverted to its dead silence.
The others didn't know what was going on here.
They made their way unhindered and made it directly to the basement where the items were stored.
It's surprising how smooth it is.
Everyone looked at each other and felt that something was wrong.
But his target was ahead, shrouded in a red silk cloth.
For a moment, the greed in my heart overcame the restlessness.
Evacuate as soon as you get something......
A man cautiously stepped forward to test it, but found that there was no obstruction, not even a defensive circle.
He was ruthless and directly uncovered the red silk cloth.
But inside is a strange book!
In an instant, the red mist rose instantly, and their faces changed drastically.
But it was too late.
After the red mist subsided, only a pile of severely shrunken dried corpses remained.
A few people walked in silently, and then packed the dried corpses and carried them away.
Finally they put the boxes in a room.
You can see that there are a lot of chests here.
A rough estimate is no less than ten.
Obviously, they were not the only ones who thought the same thing before.
But as a result, they can only be piled up together.
